AI Security Review

scanned 2mo ago · by lpm-firewall-ai

Direct source inspection confirms automatic preinstall execution and multiple outbound channels carrying collected host and consumer-project metadata. The declared dependency-confusion PoC intent does not remove the concrete privacy and exfiltration behavior.

Static reason

One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; source fingerprint signature matched known malicious package; routed for review

Trigger

Installing the dependency runs `node index.js` via `preinstall`.

Impact

An unconsented package install discloses machine identity, network identifiers, filesystem location, and consuming-project ownership metadata to a fixed external host.

Mechanism

Install-time host and project metadata exfiltration via DNS and web callbacks.

Attack narrative

On installation, the preinstall hook runs automatically. It reads host and project metadata, resolves public and DNS-network identifiers, encodes the resulting JSON into DNS labels, and sends duplicate HTTP/HTTPS POST callbacks to a fixed external host. This is concrete unconsented installation-time data exfiltration, regardless of the stated research purpose.

Decision evidence

public snapshot

AI called this Malicious at 99.0% confidence as Malware with low false-positive risk.

Evidence for block

`preinstall` executes `index.js` automatically during dependency installation.
The install script collects host, username, home directory, working directory, local/public IPs, DNS subnet, and consuming-project metadata.
It hex-encodes the collected payload into DNS queries and also posts it over HTTP and HTTPS to a fixed callback host.
The source reads the consuming project's `package.json` via `INIT_CWD` to collect owner and repository metadata.

Evidence against

No credential, token, environment-variable, source-file, persistence, downloader, or command-execution logic was found.
The package self-identifies as dependency-confusion research, but that does not make unconsented install-time telemetry benign.
